14、获得了第二名，这将成为他们宝贵的回忆。1Realizing解析：考查非谓语动词。这句话的谓语动词为decide, realize为非谓语动词，realize的逻辑主语是we, we和realize之间是主动关系，故填Realizing。2it解析：考查代词。句意：我们决定让这次运动会成为所有人的难忘回忆。make缺少宾语，这里要用代词指代前文中的sports meeting作make的宾语，故填it。3which解析：考查非限制性定语从句。the opening parade是指物的先行词，同时定语从句中介词for后面缺少宾语，当非限制性定语从句中缺少宾语而且先行词又是指物的时候，关系代词用w
15、hich。4preparations解析：考查名词。句意：我们参加了开幕式游行，为这个游行我们做了很多准备。make preparations for为固定搭配，意为“为做准备”。 故填名词形式preparations。5To解析：考查固定搭配。to ones excitement为固定搭配，意为“让某人激动的是”。故填To。6had_done解析：考查动词时态。这里有一个定语从句(省略了that)，do 在定语从句中作谓语，do 发生在were 之前，过去的过去用过去完成时，故填had done。7impressive解析：考查形容词。句意：由于他们之前的艰苦训练，他们的表现让人印象深刻。根
16、据句意可知，这里需要用形容词，impress的形容词是impressive(令人印象深刻的)，故填impressive。8was_announced解析：考查动词时态和语态。announce在句中作谓语，result 与announce是被动关系，所以用被动语态。全文都用的是一般过去时，所以这里也要用一般过去时，主语是the result，谓语动词用单数，故填was announced。9a解析：考查冠词。take a picture 为固定搭配，意为“照相”。句意：我们一起拍了张照片。故填a。10as解析：考查连词。time goes by是完整的主谓结构，这里需要一个从句，缺少一个连词，根
17、据句意可知，这里表达的是随着时间的流逝，故用as引导这个时间状语从句。句意：我相信随着时间的流逝，这次运动会将成为所有人的宝贵回忆。.应用文写作最近，你校英文报在举办主题为“Exercise an hour every day，healthy life for a lifetime.”的征文活动。假定你是李华，请根据以下内容用英语写一篇短文。1.你对征文主题的理解；2.你喜欢的运动项目及活动情况；3.该运动给你生活和学习带来的好处。注意：1.词数80左右；2.可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；3.开头语已写好，不计入总词数。Nowadays, playing sports is becoming
